Abstract: A data processing method comprises receiving an electronically parseable document, scanning the document according to at least one predefined rule to determine if the document is suspicious, and, if the document is determined not to be suspicious, parsing the document with a first parser, and, if the document is determined to be suspicious, parsing the document with a second parser.

Abstract: A forward and backward compatible streaming protocol requires subsequent versions of the protocol to be purely additive relative to earlier versions. When a data segment is transmitted as a data stream, a first stream of data that is in accordance with a first version of the protocol is transmitted, with additional streams of data that are in accordance with subsequent versions of the protocol appended in sequence to the first stream of data. When a read module implements an earlier version of the protocol than a write module, the data segment is truncated to include only the data supported by the version implemented by the read module. On the other hand, when the read module implements a later version of the protocol than the write module, receipt of the data segment is terminated after the data supported by the version implemented by the write module is received.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system, method, and program for determining a structure of objects in a document, such as an XML document. The document is parsed to determine instances of objects within the document. Each instance of each object is parsed to determine whether a value is provided for the object. Information is returned on each instance of each object in the document and location information is returned of the value for each object in the document having a value. The returned information identifies the objects in the documents and the location of any values for identified objects in the document. When the location information is returned, a string comprising the value from the document is not returned.
